Time well spent - Mo was a great guide. Very knowledgeable and well-informed. I wouldn’t hesitate to go on another tour with him.

Interesting tour - An interesting tour learning about the history of Johannesburg's architecture. Mo, our guide was excellent. He set a good pace for us. We were lucky to be the only people on the tour so we were able to ask lots of questions. Johannesburg still has safety issues. So, a tour to learn and be safe is definitely the way to go.

Mo knows his stuff - Joined Mo for a walk around Joburg learning about the history of some of the fabulous areas and buildings .... the city was empty due to a public holiday being Youth Day so appreciative of the tour going ahead on such an important day in South Africa... for such a young man Mo had alot of information and I learnt alot on the walk around the city.. he was kind enough to walk me to my hotel as the tour ended close by... very nice considering the tour went much longer than advertised... definitely recommended

A highly interesting... - A highly interesting tour, combining history of the city with its architecture, and lots of opportunities to ask addition questions about the culture and daily life! I'd highly exploring this less visited part of Johannesburg on foot!
